Eom Ki-joon’s revenge continues in 7 Escape – Resurrection

by tccolb

Catching up on SBS’s upcoming 7 Escape – Resurrection, the new teaser and stills place our savage leads in a brief moment of calm, deep within the eye of the second season’s storm. No one is safe with mastermind Eom Ki-joon (Little Women) still lurking near and it won’t be long before all hell breaks loose once again.

Re-acquainting us with the story’s beloved (?) main players, the teaser’s sequence begins with a glimpse of Lee Yubi (Yumi’s Cells 2), Yoon Jong-hoon (Shooting Stars), Shin Eun-kyung (Penthouse), and Jo Jae-yoon (Knight Flower). But despite choosing a life of ruthlessness in the drama’s first chapter, the rest between seasons has proved to be productive, allowing the characters to find a long-lost shred of humanity in their hardened hearts.

In a moment of remorse, a tearful Jo Yoon-hee (Love Is Beautiful Life Is Wonderful) wonders how she became such a monster as we’re also re-introduced to Hwang Jung-eum (Men Are Men) and Lee Joon (Red Heart). The intermittent text screens then reveal that our characters’ circumstances have changed and now there’s something that they each want to protect.

But this, of course, puts them in greater danger. Not just because they have something to lose, but because their enemies would question their entitlement to any happiness. As Matthew Lee (Eom Ki-joon) clinks glasses to the start of Season 2, the teaser then ends on the ominous threat heard in voiceover: “I’m going to destroy everything you all cherish, one by one.”

Co-directed by PD Oh Joon-hyuk (Cheer Up) and PD Oh Song-hee, with scripts penned by Kim Soon-ok (Penthouse, An Empress’s Dignity), SBS’s 7 Escape – Resurrection will be launching this month on March 29.

Thank you for the update. Your beautifully evocative writing is really engaging. It is a primal fear to lose whom we love and cherish. It would be nice to see the humanity in our (anti) heros prevail.

I’m kinda bummed they are doing a second season of this because I very selfishly want Lee Joon’s schedule to be freed up for something that I would actually watch. Hopefully soon?

Like we discussed in another thread. Even actors need to work to put food on the table. 🤷‍♀️ We all hope our faves do exceptional work each time but I guess it is a job after all.

Oh I don’t fault him at all for being in this! My assumption was that if they hadn’t done a second season of this, Lee Joon would have been free to star in something else, which I’m very much looking forward to. If I’m wrong and this was his only offer on the table, I’m very glad he took it.

I totally understand your frustration. I have tried to "forgive" Kim Nam-gil for making us wait so long between his "watchable" projects. But then it's better that he's doing something not and all. I hope Netflix paid him for the entire 20 episodes they shot for Songs of the Bandit instead of the 9 that they aired. If so - all is forgiven. 😊
